Definitions
- the invention relates generally to the production of polypropylene and polypropylene copolymers and, particularly, to the production of such polymers in bulk loop reactors.
- Polypropylene and polypropylene copolymers may be formed in a polymerization reactor in the presence of an appropriate catalyst.
- Propylene monomer is introduced into the reactor, alone or in combination with one or more other monomers, such as ethylene, to produce the polypropylene homopolymer or copolymer fluff or granules.
- the propylene polymer is withdrawn from the reactor and may be subjected to appropriate processing steps and then extruded as a thermoplastic mass through an extruder and die mechanism to produce the propylene polymer as a raw material in particulate form, usually as pellets.
- the propylene polymer pellets are ultimately heated and processed in the formation of the desired end products.
- end products include fibers, webs (both woven and nonwoven), films, pipe, containers, and foamed articles.
- Other examples of such products made from propylene polymers include component parts of durable goods articles such as automotive interior and exterior components, and household appliance interior and exterior components
- a bulk loop reactor may be formed from one or more interconnected loops having a continuous bore.
- the catalyst is distributed within the continuous bore by circulating liquid propylene monomer. In this way, propylene polymer polymerization occurs within the continuous bore.
- Two or more bulk loop reactors may be connected, such as for example in series. In this way, the polymerization conditions in each reactor may be the same or different to achieve desired polymer properties. Examples of polymerization conditions that may be varied include temperature, pressure, monomer content, co-monomer content, catalyst, co-catalyst and hydrogen concentration.
- Polymer particles exiting the bulk loop reactor may be subjected to processing steps as described above or they may be introduced into one or more polymerization reactors, such as for example one or more gas phase reactors, for further polymerization with other monomers, such as ethylene, to alter the physical and chemical properties of the propylene polymer resins. Additionally, the physical and chemical properties of the propylene polymer resin may be tailored by the selection of one or more catalyst systems.
- bulk loop reactors can produce propylene polymers on a substantially continuous basis, and at high out-puts over an extended period of time, such as for example, from between 1 to at least 50 tons of propylene polymer per hour for between 5 days to up to 2 years and beyond
- bulk loop reactors offer several advantages over other types of polypropylene reactors, such as stirred pot, stirred bed, and other non-substantially continuous reactors.
- catalyst system useful for producing polypropylene, in some instances the presence of small quantities of one catalyst system or small quantities of one or more of the components thereof may interfere with or hinder the performance of another catalyst system.
- the present invention relates to propylene polymerization process in a bulk loop reactor, and particularly to propylene polymerization process for polymerizing commercial quantities of polypropylene in a bulk loop reactor.
- a method of polymerizing propylene in a bulk loop reactor by injecting a metallocene catalyst and a Ziegler-Natta catalyst system into the bulk loop reactor under propylene polymerization conditions is provided.
- the bulk loop reactor has a first temperature range.
- a quantity of metallocene catalyst having a second temperature range is introduced into the bulk loop reactor at a first frequency rate from a first catalyst mixing system in communication with the bulk loop reactor.
- a quantity of Ziegler-Natta catalyst having a third temperature range is introduced into the bulk loop reactor at a second frequency rate from a second catalyst mixing system in communication with the bulk loop reactor.
- the first frequency rate may be higher than the second frequency rate and the first temperature range may be higher than the second temperature range.
- a method of polymerizing propylene in a bulk loop reactor which includes contacting a quantity of supported metallocene catalyst with a first quantity of scavenger prior to injecting the supported metallocene catalyst into the bulk loop reactor and contacting a quantity of Ziegler-Natta catalyst system with a second quantity of scavenger prior to injecting the Ziegler-Natta catalyst system into the bulk loop reactor under propylene polymerization conditions, wherein the second quantity of scavenger is greater that the first quantity of scavenger.
- the scavenger may be TEAL.
- a method of contacting a flow of metallocene with a flow of propylene includes directing the flow of metallocene towards a junction, directing the flow of propylene towards the junction and maintaining a portion of the flow of metallocene separate from a portion of the flow propylene within a portion of the junction downstream of the flow of propylene into the junction.
- the temperature of the flow of metallocene or flow of propylene may be in the range of between -10 °C and +10 °C.
- the flow rate downstream of the junction may be between 0.3 meters/second to 10 meters/second.
- a method of introducing a volume of antifouling agent into a catalyst mixing system is provided.
- a portion of the antifouling agent is introduced at or downstream of a point of contact of a stream of propylene with a stream of catalyst.
- the antifouling agent may be a member, alone or in combination with other members, selected from the group consisting of Stadis 450 Conductivity Improver, Synperonic, and Pluronic.
- catalyst systems used in bulk loop reactors for the commercial production are commonly know as conventional Ziegler-Natta catalyst systems (hereafter may also be referred to as "Ziegler-Natta catalysts" or “Ziegler-Natta catalyst systems”).
- Ziegler-Natta catalysts Suitable conventional Ziegler-Natta catalysts are disclosed in, for example, U.S. Pat. Nos.
- These Ziegler-Natta catalyst systems can include a Ziegler-Natta catalyst, a support, one or more internal donors, and one or more external donors.
- Ziegler-Natta catalysts are stereospecific complexes formed from a transition metal halide and a metal alkyl or hydride and can produce isotactic polypropylenes.

- the RH-220 catalyst contains approximately 3.4% by weight titanium, with approximately 14.5% by weight magnesium.
- Conventional Ziegler-Natta catalysts may also be used in conjunction with one or more external donors.
- external donors act as stereoselective control agents to control the amount of atactic or non-stereoregular polymer produced during the reaction, thus reducing the amount of xylene solubles.
- external donors include the organosilicon compounds such as cyclohexylmethyl dimethoxysilane (CMDS), dicyclopentyl dimethoxysilane (CPDS) and diisopropyl dimethoxysilane (DIDS).
- CMDS cyclohexylmethyl dimethoxysilane

- DIDS diisopropyl dimethoxysilane
- Metallocenes can be characterized generally as coordination compounds incorporating one or more cyclopentadienyl (Cp) groups (which may be substituted or unsubstituted and may be the same or different) coordinated with a transition metal through ⁇ bonding.
- Cp cyclopentadienyl
- the Cp groups may also include substitution by linear, branched or cyclic hydrocarbyl radicals and desirably cyclic hydrocarbyl radicals so as to form other contiguous ring structures, including, for example indenyl, azulenyl and fluorenyl groups.
- These additional ring structures may also be substituted or unsubstituted by hydrocarbyl radicals and desirably C1-C20 hydrocarbyl radicals.
- Metallocene compounds may be combined with an activator and/or cocatalyst (as described in greater detail below) or the reaction product of an activator and/or cocatalyst, such as for example methylaluminoxane (MAO) and optionally an alkylation/scavenging agent such as trialkylaluminum compound (TEAL, TMA and/or TIBAL).

- metallocene includes a single metallocene composition or two or more metallocene compositions.
- Metallocenes are typically bulky ligand transition metal compounds generally represented by the formula: [L] m M[A] n where L is a bulky ligand, A is a leaving group, M is a transition metal and m and n are such that the total ligand valency corresponds to the transition metal valency.
- the ligands L and A may be bridged to each other, and if two ligands L and/or A are present, they may be bridged.

- Metallocene catalysts and metallocene catalysts systems that produce isotactic polyolefins are disclosed in U.S. Patent Nos. 4,794,096 and 4,975,403 which are incorporated by reference herein. These patents disclose chiral, stereorigid metallocene catalysts that polymerize olefins to form isotactic polymers and are especially useful in the polymerization of highly isotactic polypropylene.
- Suitable metallocene catalysts are disclosed in, for example, U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,530,914; 4,542,199; 4,769,910; 4,808,561; 4,871,705; 4,933,403; 4,937,299; 5,017,714; 5,026,798; 5,057,475; 5,120,867; 5,132,381; 5,155,180; 5,198,401; 5,278,119; 5,304,614; 5,324,800; 5,350,723; 5,391,790; 5,436,305; 5,510,502; 5,145,819; 5,243,001; 5,239,022; 5,329,033; 5,296,434; 5,276,208; 5,672,668; 5,304,614, 5,374,752; 5,510,502; 4,931,417; 5,532,396; 5,543,373; 6,100,214; 6,228,795; 6,124,230; 6,114,479; 6,117,955;
- Metallocenes may be used in combination with some form of activator in order to create an active catalyst system.
- activator is defined herein to be any compound or component, or combination of compounds or components, capable of enhancing the ability of one or more metallocenes to polymerize olefins to polyolefins.
- Alklyalumoxanes such as methylalumoxane (MAO) are commonly used as metallocene activators. Generally alkylalumoxanes contain about 5 to 40 of the repeating units.
- AIR 2 for linear species and for cyclic species where R is a C1-C8 alkyl including mixed alkyls. Particularly desirable are the compounds in which R is methyl.
- Alumoxane solutions may be obtained from commercial vendors as solutions having various concentrations.
- There are a variety of methods for preparing alumoxane non-limiting examples of which are described in U.S. Patent Nos. 4,665,208, 4,952,540, 5,091,352, 5,206,199, 5,204,419, 4,874,734, 4,924,018, 4,908,463, 4,968,827, 5,308,815, 5,329,032, 5,248,801, 5,235,081, 5,103,031 and EP-A-0 561 476, EP 0 279 586, EP-A-0 594 218 and WO 94/10180, each fully incorporated herein by reference. (As used herein unless otherwise stated “solution” refers to any mixture including suspensions.)
- Ionizing activators may also be used to activate metallocenes. These activators are neutral or ionic, or are compounds such as tri(n-butyl)ammonium tetrakis(pentaflurophenyl)borate, which ionize the neutral metallocene compound. Such ionizing compounds may contain an active proton, or some other cation associated with, but not coordinated or only loosely coordinated to, the remaining ion of the ionizing compound. Combinations of activators may also be used, for example, alumoxane and ionizing activators in combinations, see for example, WO 94/07928.
- ionic catalysts for coordination polymerization comprised of metallocene cations activated by non-coordinating anions appear in the early work in EP-A-0 277 003, EP-A-0 277 004 and US patents 5,198,401 and WO-A-92/00333 (incorporated herein by reference). These teach a desirable method of preparation wherein metallocenes (bisCp and monoCp) are protanated by an anion precursor such that an alkyl/hydride group is abstracted from a transition metal to make it both cationic and charge-balanced by the non-coordinating anion.
- Suitable ionic salts include tetrakis-substituted borate or aluminum salts having fluorided aryl-constituents such as phenyl, biphenyl and napthyl.
- noncoordinating anion means an anion which either does not coordinate to said cation or which is only weakly coordinated to said cation thereby remaining sufficiently labile to be displaced by a neutral Lewis base.
- “Compatible” noncoordinating anions are those which are not degraded to neutrality when the initially formed complex decomposes. Further, the anion will not transfer an anionic substituent or fragment to the cation so as to cause it to form a neutral four coordinate metallocene compound and a neutral by-product from the anion.
- ionizing ionic compounds not containing an active proton but capable of producing both the active metallocene cation and a noncoordinating anion. See, for example, EP-A-0 426 637 and EP-A-0 573 403 (incorporated herein by reference).
- An additional method of making the ionic catalysts uses ionizing anion precursors which are initially neutral Lewis acids but form the cation and anion upon ionizing reaction with the metallocene compounds, for example the use of tris(pentafluorophenyl) borane, see EP-A-0 520 732 (incorporated herein by reference).
- Ionic catalysts for addition polymerization can also be prepared by oxidation of the metal centers of transition metal compounds by anion precursors containing metallic oxidizing groups along with the anion groups, see EP-A-0 495 375 (incorporated herein by reference).
- metal ligands include halogen moieties (for example, bis-cyclopentadienyl zirconium dichloride) which are not capable of ionizing abstraction under standard conditions, they can be converted via known alkylation reactions with organometallic compounds such as lithium or aluminum hydrides or alkyls, alkylalumoxanes, Grignard reagents, etc. See EP-A-0 500 944 and EP-A1-0 570 982 (incorporated herein by reference) for in situ processes describing the reaction of alkyl aluminum compounds with dihalo-substituted metallocene compounds prior to or with the addition of activating anionic compounds.
- organometallic compounds such as lithium or aluminum hydrides or alkyls, alkylalumoxanes, Grignard reagents, etc.
- NCA support methods generally comprise using neutral anion precursors that are sufficiently strong Lewis acids to react with the hydroxyl reactive functionalities present on the silica surface such that the Lewis acid becomes covalently bound.
- the activator for the metallocene supported catalyst composition is a NCA
- the NCA is first added to the support composition followed by the addition of the metallocene catalyst.
- the activator is MAO
- the MAO and metallocene catalyst are dissolved together in solution.
- the support is then contacted with the MAO/metallocene catalyst solution.
- the bulk loop reactor system 10 includes a catalyst mixing and injection system 200 upstream of and in communication with a pair of loop reactors 300, a polymer recovery system 400 downstream of the loop reactors 300 and a gas phase reactor 500. It will be understood that the bulk loop reactor system may include a single loop reactor or single gas phase reactor or multiple loop reactors and multiple gas phase reactors or any combination thereof, including one or more other olefin polymerization reactors, such as other propylene polymerization reactors.
- the bulk loop reactors 300 may further include a propylene feed conduit 300B and a co-monomer (such as for example, ethylene) feed conduit 300C.
- the catalyst mixing and injection system 200 includes a mixing vessel 202.
- the mixing vessel 202 includes a mixing paddle 204 and a heating jacket 206.
- a high molecular weight mineral oil and the Ziegler-Natta catalyst are introduced into the mixing vessel 202.
- the high molecular oil is heated to a sufficient temperature (in the range of from about 30 °C to at least 90 °C, depending upon the type of mineral oil used) in order to reduce the viscosity of the mineral oil and allow the mixing paddle 204 to sufficiently mix the catalyst and high molecular mineral oil.
- the heated mixture of high molecular weight mineral oil and catalyst is then conveyed via conduit 208 to an injector 210 where it may cool and form a "paste".
- the paste is urged during the compression stroke of the plunger 211 into the conduit 212 and into another mixing vessel 214 wherein a co-catalyst, such as TEAL, and one or more electron donors may be blended with the paste by the mixing paddle 216.
- a co-catalyst such as TEAL
- the resulting mixture of catalyst, co-catalyst and electron donor exits the mixing vessel 214 via conduit 218 and is metered by the pump 220 into a pre-polymerization loop reactor 222 containing liquid propylene monomer.
- Polymerization temperatures in the pre-polymerization loop reactor 222 may be from between -10 and 10 °C and are controlled by cooling jackets 223.
- Propylene polymer granules are formed as propylene polymerization begins upon contact between the catalyst/co-catalyst and the liquid propylene monomer, all of which are circulated within the pre-polymerization loop reactor 222 by a circulation pump 224.
- Pre-polymerization cycle time may last between 7 and at least 30 minutes, desirably between 15 and 20 minutes before the propylene polymer granules are conveyed via conduit 226 into the first loop reactor 302 containing liquid propylene monomer.
- a circulating pump 304 circulates the propylene granules and liquid propylene monomer within the first loop reactor 302. As propylene polymerization continues in the first loop reactor, the propylene polymer granules increase in size.
- the first loop reactor cycle time may last between 20 and at least 95 minutes, desirably between 30 and 50 minutes before the propylene polymer granules are conveyed via conduit 306 into the second loop reactor 308.
- Polymerization temperatures in the first and second loop reactors, 302 and 308 respectively, may range from between 66 to 77 °C and are controlled by cooling jackets 310.
- Circulation pump 312 circulates the propylene granules and liquid propylene monomer in the second loop reactor.
- the second loop reactor cycle time may last between 10 and at least 60 minutes, desirably between 20 and 50 minutes before the propylene polymer granules are conveyed via conduit 313 into the polymer recovery system 400.
- the catalyst is deactivated or "killed" before entering the polymer recovery system 400.
- a heating column 402 receives the propylene polymer granules from the conduit 312. Sufficient heat is applied to the propylene polymer granules such that upon entering the flash tank 406 from the conduit 404, a substantial portion of the liquid propylene monomer accompanying the propylene polymer granules vaporizes, thus separating from the granules.
- the gaseous propylene and a portion of the polymerization by-products are extracted from the flash tank 406 via the conduit 408. This propylene may be recompressed, filtered, so as to remove impurities and other contaminates that may adversely react with the catalyst system, and returned to the loop reactors 300.
- the propylene polymer granules exit the flash tank 406 via conduit 410 and may be directed to extruders for processing into pellets. Or, if further polymerization with one or more monomers, such as for example ethylene, is desired, the propylene polymer granules exiting the flash tank 406 via conduit 412 may be conveyed into the gas phase reactor 500.
- the propylene polymer granules exit the gas phase reactor 500 via conduit 502 and may be directed to extruders for processing into impact polypropylene copolymers pellets.
- one or more other materials such as, for example, stabilizers, UV blockers, antistatic chemicals and/or pigments may be blended with the propylene polymer granules.
- FIG 2 Another bulk loop reactor system 12 suitable for propylene polymerization using one or more conventional Zeigler-Natta catalysts is illustrated in FIG 2.
- the bulk loop reactor system 12 is similar to the bulk loop reactor system 10 with the exception that the system 12 illustrates a more extensive polymer recovery system 300A and does not illustrate a gas phase reactor or a pre-polymerization loop reactor 222.
- the system 12 illustrates a more extensive polymer recovery system 300A and does not illustrate a gas phase reactor or a pre-polymerization loop reactor 222.
- active catalyst present in the propylene polymer granules exiting the loop reactor 300A via conduit 314 may be deactivated prior to entering the wash column 414.
- propylene polymer granules separate from the liquid propylene in the wash column 414.
- additional liquid propylene entering at or near the base of the wash column 414 passes through the bed of settling propylene polymer granules.
- Liquid propylene and a portion of the polymerization by-products exit the wash column 414 via the conduit 415 and are conveyed to a distillation vessel 416.
- the distillation vessel separates the liquid propylene from polymerization by-products, such as atactic polypropylene.
- the remaining propylene polymer granules, propylene monomer and polymerization by-products exit the wash column 414 via conduit 417 and enter the heating column 418.
- the propylene polymer granules may exit the wash column 414 continuously or in batches.
- Sufficient heat is applied to the propylene polymer granules such that upon entering the flash tank 420, a substantial portion of the liquid propylene monomer accompanying the propylene polymer granules vaporizes, thus separating from the granules.
- the gaseous propylene and other polymerization by-products are extracted from the flash tank 420 via the conduit 422.
- the gaseous propylene may be recompressed by the recycle compressor 424 and conveyed via conduit 426 to the distillation vessel 416.
- Liquid propylene monomer exits the distillation vessel via conduit 427 and may be conveyed to one or more propylene feed treaters 428 wherein the propylene may be filtered as described above before being returned to the loop reactor 300A.
- the propylene polymer granules exit the flash tank 420 via conduit 430 and enter the purge column 432. Upon exiting the purge column 432, the propylene polymer granules may be directed to extruders for processing into pellets as previously described.
- metallocene catalyst systems can also be used to produce propylene polymers in bulk loop reactors.
- Ziegler-Natta catalyst systems and/or components thereof may not be compatible with metallocene catalyst systems and/or components thereof.
- certain conditions and equipment design of the bulk loop reactor system which are suitable for propylene polymerization using one or more Ziegler-Natta catalyst systems may not be suitable or less than suitable for propylene polymerization using one or more metallocene catalyst systems.
- Ziegler-Natta catalysts are dry-mixed with the high molecular weight mineral oil in about a 1:2 ratio in the mixing vessel 202.
- drying the metallocene catalyst, and particularly drying the supported metallocene catalyst may damage its productivity (degradation due to heat and also to trace impurities such as oxygen, moisture during the drying process).
- the weight percent (wt%) of the supported metallocene catalyst system in the mineral oil slurry may vary from 1 wt% to at least 50 wt%, and desirably from 5 wt% to 30 wt%.
- the temperature within the mixing vessel 200 should be reduced to a temperature sufficient to avoid deactivating the metallocene catalyst during the mixing thereof with the mineral oil.
- thermal deactivation of the metallocene may be avoided by heating the metallocene to temperatures below 60 °C, and desirably below 30 °C.
- solvent such as hexane
- residual Ziegler-Natta catalyst may produce high molecular weight atactic polypropylene, under the conditions in which metallocene polypropylene is generally produced (low amount of hydrogen, no external donor). This high molecular weight material may become a source of gels in the metallocene polypropylene. In many instances, residual electron donor may act as a strong poison for metallocene catalysts. It was therefor desirable to clean the mixing vessel 202 and all related conduits of such Ziegler-Natta catalysts and residual electron donors.
- Ziegler-Natta catalysts and residual electron donors may be present in other components of the bulk loop reactor system, such as the propylene monomer recycle components, it is desirable to clean and/or purge the other components of the bulk loop reactor system as well before introducing metallocene catalysts.
- the catalyst mixing system 200 may be cleaned, for example, by opening the system and introducing mineral oil under high pressure. Desirably, the catalyst mixing system 200 may be similarly cleaned when transitioning the catalyst mixing system 200 from metallocene catalysts to Ziegler-Natta catalysts.
- a separate catalyst mixing system dedicated to the metallocene catalyst system may be used (as described in greater detail below and illustrated in FIG 3). In this way, cleaning the catalyst mixing system 200 of Ziegler-Natta catalysts systems and/or components prior to the introduction of a metallocene catalyst system may be avoided.
- cleaning the other components of the bulk loop reactor with mineral oil so as to purge these components of Ziegler-Natta catalysts systems and/or components thereof may be expensive and time consuming.
- the other components may be cleaned or purged by one or several ways and/or a combination thereof.
- the Ziegler-Natta catalyst circulating within the loop reactors can be deactivated and the deactivated catalyst substantially removed via normal take-off after between 3 to 5 loop residence times or after between 3 to 10 hours (1 to 2 hr/residence time) have elapsed. If electron donor was present with the Ziegler-Natta catalyst, the Ziegler-Natta catalyst is deactivated as described above, however to purge the loop reactors and components thereof, such as the polymer recovery system of electron donor, the bulk loop reactor system may be operated for an additional period of time, generally between 5 hours to 10 hours, in order to purge the components of electron donor.
- the Ziegler-Natta catalyst system may be transitioned to a non-electron donor Ziegler-Natta catalyst system.
- that catalyst system may be transitioned to a non-electron donor Ziegler-Natta catalyst system.
- propylene polymer production continues as the bulk loop reactor system is purged of electron donor.
- the Ziegler-Natta catalyst system Prior to transitioning to a metallocene catalyst system, the Ziegler-Natta catalyst system is deactivated and the reactors are purged after 3 to 5 loop residence times. As such, while not only producing propylene polymers during the electron donor purge, this method of cleaning the loop reactor is accomplished in substantially less time than the above described method.
- the Ziegler-Natta catalyst can be deactivated and the metallocene catalyst system introduced into the bulk loop reactor system. In this way, the loop reactor and polymer recovery system may be purged by production of metallocene polypropylene. This method may take between 8 hours and 24 hours to sufficiently purge the loop reactor system of Ziegler-Natta catalyst and/or components thereof.
- the above procedures may be employed to purge the loop reactors and associated components of metallocene catalyst systems.
- the time periods for transitioning from a metallocene catalyst system to a Ziegler-Natta catalyst system are similar to the time periods for transitioning from a Ziegler-Natta catalyst system to a metallocene catalyst system.
- the metallocene catalyst system may be deactivated and purged from both the loop reactors and the associated components.
- a non-electron donor Ziegler-Natta catalyst system may be introduced allowing continued propylene polymer production while purging the loop reactors and associated components of metallocene.
- the metallocene catalyst system may be deactivated followed by the introduction of a Ziegler-Natta catalyst system into the loop reactors.
- FIG 3 two metallocene catalyst mixing systems, FIG 3A and FIG 3B are illustrated. While neither system requires the use of the pre-polymerization loop reactor before the introducing the metallocene catalyst into the loop reactor 300, either system may be used with the pre-polymerization loop reactor.
- the metallocene catalyst mixing system 316 illustrated in FIG 3A, includes a mixing vessel 318 having a mixing paddle 320 for sufficiently mixing and maintaining a sufficient distribution of the metallocene catalyst and cocatalyst in the mineral oil slurry.
- the wt% of metallocene catalyst system in mineral oil is generally between 1 and 50 and desirably between 5 and 30.
- the metallocene catalyst slurry is conveyed by conduit 322 to a valve 324. As the valve 324 is opened, a portion of the slurry enters a conduit 326. When the valve 324 is closed, the flow of slurry into conduit 326 is interrupted.
- the frequency of slurry introduction into the conduit 326 may be between 1 to 10 times per minute.
- the amount of slurry in each "slug" may be between 10 and 50 milliliters.
- Conduit 328 may supply a scavenger and/or co-catalyst, such as TEAL or TIBAL, in an amount for example between 1 and 2 weight ratio of TEAL to the supported catalyst, to the junction 327 at which point the metallocene catalyst/cocatalyst and TEAL are combined or are "precontacted".
- a scavenger and/or co-catalyst such as TEAL or TIBAL
- the metallocene catalyst and cocatalyst can be separately introduced into the bulk loop reactor. In this instance, there may be some loss of catalyst activity and loss of propylene polymer granule morphology.
- a scavenger such as TEAL (in either a mixing vessel, such as mixing vessel 202, FIG 1 or in conduit 330, FIG 3A) prior to beginning polymerization (generally at and/or downstream of the junction 332).
- TEAL is readily available as an impurity scavenger, thus protecting the catalyst during the initial contact with propylene.
- neat TEAL may be used, when TEAL is combined with a solvent, the solvent, such as hexane or other C4 to C20 hydrocarbons, acts to reduce the viscosity of the mineral oil surrounding the catalyst and thus improves the diffusion of propylene relative to the catalyst particles which may improve polymerization.
- TEAL in the range of from 5:1 to 15:1 lbs. of TEAL to lbs. of supported catalyst
- a minimum of amount of TEAL and or TIBAL in the range of from 1:4 lbs. of TEAL or TIBAL to lbs. of supported catalyst to 4:1 lbs. TEAL or TIBAL to lbs. of supported catalyst, and desirably 1:1 lbs. of TEAL or TIBAL to lbs. of supported catalyst
- TEAL greater than 4:1 lbs. of TEAL to lbs. of supported catalyst
- the precontact time for Ziegler-Natta catalyst may be several minutes, ranging from 5 to 15 minutes.
- the precontact time is desirably less than one minute, and more desirably less than 30 seconds and still more desirably less than or equal to 15 seconds.
- the diameter of the conduit 330 is 0.5 inches
- the line length of conduit 330 is 15 feet
- the TEAL solution is entering the junction 327 at around 12 lbs./hr (5 wt% dilution in hexane)
- the metallocene catalyst/mineral oil slurry is entering the junction 327 at around 6 gals/hr
- the flow time in conduit 330 would be around 15 seconds.
- conduit 330 supplies the metallocene catalyst/cocatalyst to the junction 332 where propylene monomer, conveyed by conduit 334, combines with the active metallocene catalyst/cocatalyst and travels for a distance in the conduit 336 before entering the loop reactor 300. Because propylene polymer polymerization begins at or generally downstream of the junction 332, it is desirable to convey the polymerizing metallocene catalyst into the reactor before plugging of the conduit 336 occurs by the accumulation of propylene polymer granules.
- the materials from junction 332 to the bulk loop reactor in generally less that about one minute and desirably less than 30 seconds and still more desirably less or equal to 15 seconds and most desirably between 10 and 0.001 seconds.
- the diameter of the conduit 336 is 0.5 inches and is 15 feet in length
- the propylene flow rate is around 10 gal/min in conduit 334 and the flow in the conduit 336 is around 5 m/sec
- the polymerization time in the conduit 336 is around 1 sec.
- the metallocene/cocatalyst mixture and propylene may be combined under conditions such that polymerization rate in conduit 336 is slower than the polymerization rate in the bulk loop reactor 300. This may be done, for example, by cooling one or more of the metallocene, cocatalyst and/or propylene components before or after combining one or more thereof. Generally one or all such components may be cooled to a temperature of between -10 °C and +10 °C. Maintaining a flow rate, for example, of between 0.3 m/sec to 10 m/sec in the conduit 336 will also reduce the risk of plugging.
- the flow rate in the conduit 336 may be a factor of the individual flow rates of the individual components. Desirably, the flow rate of the metallocene catalyst in conduit 326 and cocatalyst in conduit 328 are lower than the flow rate of the propylene in conduit 334. The different flow rates may promote mixing of the metallocene catalyst upon contact with the propylene.
- the metallocene catalyst mixing system 340 is substantially similar to the metallocene catalyst mixing system 316, except that a pump 342, desirably a membrane pump (150 l/hr, 0-80 barg.), having an upstream check valve 344 and a downstream check valve 346 replace the valve 324 of FIG 3A.
- a pump 342 desirably a membrane pump (150 l/hr, 0-80 barg.) having an upstream check valve 344 and a downstream check valve 346 replace the valve 324 of FIG 3A.
- the catalyst, cocatalyst and propylene may be introduced into the bulk loop reactor in a more continuous fashion (the frequency of slurry slugs being, for example, from between 60 and 120 times per minute in an amount ranging from between 4 to 16 milliliters) than that provided by the valve 324 (FIG 3A).
- the smaller volumes of catalyst and cocatalyst introduced into the bulk loop reactor may minimize swings in reactor temperatures caused by the polymerization reaction.
- a quill 338 having portions thereof defining a quill body 339, a quill bore 340, an external surface 342, an upstream end 343 and a downstream end 344.
- the upstream end 343 of the quill 338 may be formed integral with conduit 330 or it may be secured, such as for example by engaging threads, flanges or welding, to conduit 330.
- the quill bore 340 is in fluid communication with the conduit 330.
- the quill body 339 extends into the junction 332 from conduit 330.
- the outside dimensions of the quill body 339 are sized such that the flow of liquid propylene (illustrated by the solid arrows) entering the junction 332 via conduit 334 contacts the external surfaces 342 of the quill 338 as the liquid propylene travels towards conduit 336.
- the length of the quill body 339 is sufficiently long enough such that the downstream end 344 terminates downstream of the junction 332 and desirably terminates within the conduit 336 and more desirably terminates within conduit 336 downstream of the connecting flanges 346.
- the flow of catalyst enters conduit 336 and mixes with the flow of liquid propylene downstream of the junction 332 and the flanges/weld seams associated therewith.
- the internal bore surfaces defined by the conduits and junction described in FIG 3A, 3B and FIG 4 have minimal or no gaps, ridges, protrusions, texturing or other similar structures or features that would allow the metallocene catalyst particles and/or propylene polymer granules to accumulate in and/or on the bore surfaces and not be swept into the reactor by the flow in conduit 336.
- gaps ridges and protrusions may be caused by, for example, gaskets, welds, non-alignment of flanges and the like. Any such particle or granule not swept into the reactor may continue to grow and/or cause other particles to accumulate, the occurrence of either or both may create a plug or obstruction in the bore.
- the surfaces defining these bores are smoothed, such as by electro-polishing, and the gaskets should be chosen to avoid gaps at the flanges.
- the surfaces and/or portions thereof defining the bore have a roughness value of between 0 rms and 120 rms and desirably between 8 rms and 20 rms as measured by techniques known to those skilled in the art.
- the bulk densities of the propylene polymer granules made by the Ziegler-Natta catalyst system may vary as compared to the bulk densities of the propylene polymer granules made by the metallocene catalyst system.
- the bulk density of the metallocene polymer granules may be similar to the polypropylene homopolymer granules formed by conventional Ziegler-Natta catalyst systems.
- the bulk density can drop from e.g., 25 lbs./cu. ft.
- Another modification when using a conventional Ziegler-Natta catalyst system compared to using a metallocene catalyst system is the addition of an anti-fouling agent.
- an anti-fouling agent prevents such polymer coatings from forming.
- the anti-fouling agent may be added to the propylene fed to the reactor. Or it may be added such that the anti-fouling agent is also present in the catalyst mixing and injection system, thus reducing the risk of conduit plugging.
- an anti-fouling agent may cause a decrease in the metallocene catalyst activity.
- An example of a suitable anti-fouling agent is a dinonylnaphtyl sulfonic acid based anti-fouling agent, such as Stadis 450 Conductivity Improver, a product of Octel Starreon, LLC (hereafter referred to as "Stadis").
- Stadis may be used at concentrations of between 0.1 ppm and 5 ppm in the propylene feed (conduit 300B (FIG 1)) to the reactor or in such concentrations when added directly to the catalyst mixing and injection system.
- the addition of the anti-fouling agent directly to the catalyst mixing and injection system upstream of the propylene injection may result in higher concentrations of anti-fouling agent contacting the catalyst as compared to adding the anti-fouling agent directly to the reactor via the propylene feed conduit 300B or adding the anti-fouling agent at or down stream of the propylene injection (conduit 334) in the catalyst mixing and injection system.
- Contacting the catalyst with higher concentrations of anti-fouling agent in the catalyst mixing and injection system may increase the level of catalyst deactivation. As such, it may be desirably to reduce the concentration of anti-fouling agent contacting the catalyst in the catalyst mixing and injection system.
- antistatic agents such as ethylene oxide based anti-fouling agents.
- examples of an ethylene oxide/propylene oxide block copolymer anti-fouling agent are sold under the trade-names Synperonic or Pluronic a product of ICI and BASF, respectively.
- Synperonic or Pluronic antifouling agents may prevent fouling as effective as Stadis with the additional advantages of minimal loss in catalyst activity at concentrations in the range of 2 ppm to 100 ppm.
- anti-fouling agents seems to have a lasting effect upon a reactor (that is, the anti-fouling effects will last some times even after the addition of the anti-fouling agent is interrupted).
- the electrical consumption of the reactor circulating pumps may be lower with the metallocene catalyst system as compared to the Ziegler-Natta catalyst system.
- Table 2 compares MCN and Z-N for a dual loop reactor. Lower kWh means that the circulating speed is higher. This is typical for propylene polymer granules having an average particle size of around d50.
- an adjustment of the polymer recovery system parameters may be desirable.
- the metallocene polypropylene homopolymer has melting point of, for example 150°C
- a conventional Ziegler-Natta polypropylene homopolymer has a melting point of, for example 165°C
- the polymer recover system may be adjusted to lower temperatures.
- Example settings in the polymer recover system for a Ziegler-Natta random copolymer and for a metallocene PP homopolymer having a melting point of 150°C would be:
